Make Zumba Fitness Classes Part of Your Healthy Lifestyle!

Sometimes some of us have a hard time sticking to a healthy lifestyle. Let's face it; cookies, chips and soda usually taste pretty dang good. The guilt, weight gain and energy slumps from these types of foods are not so great, though. But for some reason, we eventually crave them again like junk food fiends. This is because the processed sugar and carbohydrates in unhealthy foods can actually become addicting. The lack of energy you experience from eating foods like these (after that sugar high) results from the absence of nutrition and energy-giving vitamins and minerals in them. Without energy, it can be a challenge trying to find the motivation and drive to exercise. It's just a vicious cycle! While we can't change your eating habits for you, we can offer a fun way to exercise: Zumba Fitness Classes! At Dance FX Studios, we offer Zumba classes three times a week and offer a few varieties of Zumba. Our studio is in Mesa, Arizona, near Chandler, Gilbert, Tempe, Scottsdale, and the greater Phoenix area, and our Zumba Instructors were hand picked and come to our studio to teach these fast-paced, unique exercise classes and keep the Zumba craze alive.

Zumba Fitness is a dance-fitness class that incorporates great music, exciting dances from Salsa to Belly Dancing and cool, choreographed, easy-to-learn routines all into one hour of FUN. It’s a workout without knowing that you’re working out! In each high energy, hour long Zumba Fitness class, you can burn between 500 and 600 calories! Stress and tension relief is also a perk. You can improve your endurance and cardio abilities, as well as tone your whole body, especially your legs and core area! At Dance FX Studios we offer three different types of Zumba Fitness Classes: Zumba, Zumba Sentao and Zumba Toning. In regular Zumba classes, your instructor will pick a target zone to focus on and use specific dance moves to work these target areas. Zumba Sentao involves using a chair as a tool; doing push ups holding the back of the chair and do leg raises and other movements while sitting. Your instructor will lead you through moves using light weights in Zumba Toning, also targeting certain focus areas. Zumba Toning classes are especially great for sculpting your upper arms and forearms, your back and your chest. No matter which class you choose, our instructors make sure each student is comfortable, motivated and hydrated throughout the duration of the class.

The group class aspect of Zumba creates a community of individuals that keep each other motivated and coming to class consistently. Fitness classes are a great way to meet new people who are like-minded as you and are driven to be fit and healthy. Many of our students have become close friends with each other and their Zumba instructors. In fact, some of our instructors are attending the Zumba Convention and will meet up with other instructors and students. They love their Zumba family!

If Zumba Fitness Classes sound like something you could see yourself enjoying, we have several memberships, class packages and a Newcomer's Special for you to do so! Visit the Zumba Fitness page on our website to view the packages and learn more. Come join the Zumba craze at Dance FX Studios!
